If I asked nicely, would you send me peace?
They pretend that everything's fine for me
So turn a blind eye and close the door
It's too easy to just ignore
They lie there wondering when the shots will cease
But you're over here, wasting all your love on me
So turn a blind eye and close the door
It's too easy to just ignore
It's too easy to just ignore
But you're over here, wasting all your love on me
So turn a blind eye and close the door
It's too easy to just ignore
It's too easy to just ignore
If I asked nicely without the brutality of war
If I was not poor
If you didn't have to think so hard about what it's all for
If it was that easy to be just who you are and help those who can't
If all you had to do was sigh, would you find
Would you find it that much easier if you could give a voice to those who can't speak
If they didn't have to beg and plead
What if they don't need you?
They found their own peace
Would you send me peace?
Would you send me peace?
Would you send me peace?
Would you send me peace?
Would you send me peace?
Would you send me peace?
